Memo To Self : (file under mild intoxication: what not to do, number 343)

Never place the wine glass between where your right hand belongs on the keyboard and the external mouse.

Oh dear. Wine on mouse is better than inside keyboard though !

[liadnan]

Oh, it's worse than that. I keep stuff I'm working on to the right of the mouse.

Yep, me too. So now I keep all drinks [unfortunately only non-alcoholic ones these days] within easy reach of my left hand. Less chances of soaking anything other than the carpet/my clothes that way.

Aaaah.

Been there, done that, bought the tea-towel.

On the train home on Friday night the guy sitting next me had his G&T resting on the front of his lovely massive widescreen laptop next to the touchpad as he worked, which I thought was a *very* dangerous game seeing as he'd already dropped it as he was buying the drink off the trolley guy...

Oh dear. I suppose it was red wine too?

[liadnan]

Actually, strictly speaking it was meio-doce Madeira, and hence vaguely tawny. Decent stuff too, terrible waste.

My keyboard STILL sticks from an unfortunate vanilla vodka experience three bloody years ago.
